  • In this video, I explain how psytrance and, in general, the EDM music production process evolved through the 90s.

    Really interesting stuff and very well explained, thanks mate! you should have so many more subs. Born in the UK in 98' and having so much nostalgia for early trance, it really shows how genius and creative producers were back then, because I still struggle from time to time with Ableton and FL studio. To learn trackers in a time where CZcams wasn't around, shows the dedication. Cosmic baby comes to mind when I watch this. Quality!

    Loved this! I was fascinated by goa trance and psy trance when I was a guitar rocker discovering electronic music during these time periods. I learned MIDI on Cakewalk, DAW on Logic (both paired with a Korg M1), and had my first home studio running Cubase 3.7. Today using a mix of Pro Tools, Ableton, Reason, outboard fear, and lots of VSTs. Cheers!

    Great video! How come the TB 303 and SH101 were not mentioned? Those synths are all over Astral Projection and Hallucinogen tracks as well as others.

      Music is better when you have less tools, in present day we have too much in our disposal, listen to Astral Projection - Mahadeva (1995), when the last time you heard cutting edge Trance like that?? :D

    Thanks for this video I was just listening to astral projection and thinking 🤔 how the heck did they make this in the 90s

      I wonder also. Their sound was way ahead of its time.

    Quality video! As a UK based producer born in the '90s, I'm lucky to have Logic Pro as my weapon of choice now. I would have found trackers far too complex!

    Great stuff. Reminds me of the old days using OctaMED on the Amiga 1200 back then.

    That is the Greekiest english accent I have ever heard lol . Tha me kaneis na kseskonisw thn amiga mou twra. I used to have tiny single wave cycles of various instruments and old synths stored in floppies. Now I try to do the same on an old EMU and a MPC1000 but this thing sounds like the Jungle dnb of times past. Thanks for this video as it is an exercise in minimalism when we are drowning in lfos, thousands of envelopes and automations in modern psytrance

    Steinberg Pro16, and pro24, predates Cubase. Bought pro24 a very long time ago in a Atari shop, sadly it got dumped in the trashbin.

    Great video, thanks! I remember Fast Tracker + Impulse Tracker well. Good times! Although I'm not sure that those trackers were used up until late 90's, I was using Cubase in late 90's from memory.

    The Gravis Ultrasound / MAX is what pulled musicians from the Amiga to PC. The Soundblaster line was a few years after. The highlight of the Amiga tracker scene was Octamed which used some clever programming tricks to allow 8 channels of stereo sound over the typical 4 channels. The first musician I can remember using this before it's release to the public was ‎Chris Huelsbeck on the Turrican 2 soundtrack. It was quite a big deal. It was sadly, brief, as the GUS MAX and PC soundcards took over with 32 channels of stereo sound. The Amiga couldn't compete. Musicians made the transition.

    I used to make music with Impluse Tracker in the early 90s when I was a kid. DAWs have made me lazy. I need to relearn Tracker software.

    I'd be interested to know some of your sound/sample/synthesis methods or VSTs/tools used with MadTracker 2.

    • @djopensource
      @djopensource  Před 3 měsíci

      I didn't use VSTs back then. When the VSTs appeared we swicthed to more professional DAWs, allthough some conservative artists kept on using VSTs with the tracker. As about the samples, we traded samples on IRC. Professionals bought sample collections on floppies and later on CDs. I guess the high-end producers made their own samples with synths or VAZ Modular or any other primitive virtual synth existed back then. I also made few sounds myself with VAZ Modular.
